Bulbophyllum laxiflorum

The genus Bulbophyllum (Bulb) contains 1500 species found in all tropical areas on earth.

Bulbophyllum laxiflorum grows throughout Southeast Asia. It is warm to hot growing, very tropical. The flowers are fragrant and can occur any time of the year. A group of flowers radiate from the end of the spike forming a starburst effect.

A very healthy plant. My plans are to divide it soon and offer it for sale.
